BREAKING: Uefa have confirmed that Ireland will progress to the play-off final regardless of the result due to a Czechia centre-back wearing the number 7.
If Aston Villa play like they did today in the final weeks of the season - their most complete performance in nearly two months - they'll return to the Champions League. Watkins sharper, McGinn leading by example, Tielemans back, and we want to see that Onana every week.

@AvfcSims Lots of fans actully think he was man of the match cos he did three good things(assist,hit the post when he should of scored and an Italian twist) but hopefully this gives him a boost and he can push on..
How are fans saying we need to sell Bogarde?😂😂 some of the players I get like Bailey and Guessand. Not Bogarde. He’s had 1 bad game. One. He plays multiple positions, 7/10 every time he plays. Very very very rarely puts a foot wrong and was one of our best players today.
🚨💣 𝐄𝐗𝐂𝐋𝐔𝐒𝐈𝐕𝐄: Aston Villa and Unai Emery are set to hold an EMERGENCY board meeting in the next 24 hours regarding the first-team job. ⚠😳
Tensions in the dressing room exploded after the disastrous performance against Manchester United.
The board believes Emery should have delivered more — the club has gone from genuine title challengers to now risking missing European football entirely next season.
Missing out on the UCL would trigger a £70–100 million revenue shortfall — a critical blow under their strict UEFA settlement agreement and tight PSR rules. This would almost certainly force the sale of key first-team players to balance the books.
High-risk departures include
— Emiliano Martínez
— Ollie Watkins
— Morgan Rogers
— Jacob Ramsey
Club insiders confirm discussions with potential successors have already begun in case he is sacked in the coming days.
Unai Emery’s last 4 Premier League games — 3 losses, 1 draw.
More to follow soon! 👀⏳
Just play Elliot at this point. Difference in financials between CL and no CL is too great.
It’s not even a £35m gamble. Say it doesn’t come off, he will still have resale value of atleast £20m anyway.
Just start using him. Cba seeing Buendia anymore
Decline is worsened by Emery's key players not performing. Konsa been poor lately, Rogers not impacting games enough, Watkins' woes continuing and Emery's changes not being effective
FT: Man United 3-1 #AVFC
Just three wins in the last 13 PL games. Record here remains wretched, yet Villa had opportunities to take the game to the hosts. But when you compound the same type of cheap goals conceded and a very blunt attack, it's difficult to execute any plan
Actually fuck off Unai, I’m sorry but I’m done. Perfect game to rest Watkins and play him vs United and give Tammy more than 15 mins
This is why players like Malen and Duran leave because no matter how well they perform #11 is the favourite
My opinion on Morgan Rogers is similar to my opinion on Jack Grealish. If he moves we get £100m from it at least, it’s down to us to reinvest that properly. Rogers like Grealish would then go from being the best player to just another player and wouldn’t perform as well.
@Rory_Talks_Ball Unfortunately VAR has ending up micro managing the game which wasn’t what it was brought in for, it was brought in for clear and obvious mistakes for example Henry’s handball for France against Ireland 🤷♂️
So they’re claiming Sarr’s nose was offside
When his knee very clearly ahead of his face
And he’s very clearly behind the ball
And now Spurs have scored at the other end
Where’s the 5CM margin they applied for Wirtz?
Dodgy
Wow. The @FA_PGMOL circus gets more outrageous. Disallowing that Crystal Palace goal is a joke.
Don't sign players with big noses is the message here.
